Sorry Luke.You burned your credibility when you claimed BFL shipped you product oh so long ago, when in fact it was sitting at BFL labs the whole time.
Don't put words in my mouth, thanks.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=163261.msg1713137#msg1713137 <--- Thread about Luke claiming to "have his first ASIC"

For this bet to be won tho, there needs to be a shipping label and/or tracking number.
Luke's reply: There is, but I'd prefer not to give the trolls my personal info.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=163261.msg1719599#msg1719599 <-- Luke finally admitting that "BFL has it at their office now only at my own request that they keep it there for the time being." The unit was not shipped to him.
For the record, I am not putting words in your mouth. I am putting them in a textarea element in an HTML page in a browser.
You will note that at no point did I say BFL had actually shipped it (at the time).
You claimed you had your ASIC device. You claimed you had a shipping label and tracking number for the device but declined to show either of them.
Somehow you manage to reconcile those two statements with BFL not shipping the device (thus no tracking number or label) and you not having the device (because it was still at BFL).
BFL was paying you at the time to develop the mining software.
BFL stood to gain 1000 BTC (now worth roughly $600,000) if they could claim the device had shipped by April 1st.
That is why you have no credibility on the subject of BFL. It has already been demonstrated that you are willing to deceive if the stakes are high enough.
